Description: ------------ I am using the manager to create a (temporary) table, it works but neither returns an error, nor MDB2_OK. Just "0" (int). According to the docs, it should return MDB2_OK though. I tested this a few times and both temporary tables and regular tables are created. Just the return value is "off". Test script: --------------- <?php // assume we have $db resource and all vars ready $manager = $db->loadModule('manager'); $status = $manager->createTable($name, $fields, $options); ?> Expected result: ---------------- $status should contain MDB2_OK (or an error ;-)) Actual result: -------------- $status contains "0"

Indeed, createTable() calls exec() which in turn returns the number of affected rows. I have to think a bit if this can be considered as a documentation problem or if we really have to change the code.

Well, I vote for MDB2_OK. ;-) Since exec() will always return 0. I don't think a CREATE TABLE statement will ever return a number of rows.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. If this was a documentation problem, the fix will appear on pear.php.net by the end of next Sunday (CET). If this was a problem with the pear.php.net website, the change should be live shortly. Otherwise, the fix will appear in the package's next release. Thank you for the report and for helping us make PEAR better.
